Horicon Bank teamed up with Mel’s Charities to distribute 50 “Bags of Joy” to individuals and families in need of a holiday boost. The bags contained $250 in gift cards from the various Ozaukee County Chambers of Commerce, as well as gas and grocery cards.
Tom “Mel” Stanton, executive director of Mel’s Charities, explained, “By investing in our local communities, we’re not just giving back but saying thank you to the people and businesses who make Ozaukee County special. We are incredibly grateful to Horicon Bank for this long-standing partnership.”
“Collaborating with Mel’s Charities on this initiative has been a meaningful experience for our employees,” shared Becki Schimpf, marketing specialist at Horicon Bank. “As a community-focused bank, we are committed to giving back and love when we can have fun doing it!”
Mel’s Charities continues to deliver “Bags of Joy” throughout the year as people often need joy beyond the holiday season. For more information about Mel’s Charities, visit www.MelsCharities.org.
